Color: Strawberry Pattern Size: L (Neck circumference approx. 30cm-39cm: Width 18cm) [Product Description] Dogs and cats after surgery tend to be nervous, and Elizabethan collars can also be a source of stress. However, unlike plastic types, soft Elizabethan collars are soft and reduce the burden and stress on dogs. Because it is soft, it is easier for them to lie down or sleep. If it gets dirty, you can wash it gently with a mild detergent to keep it clean. Reasons to wear an Elizabethan collar The main reason is to protect wounds after injuries or surgery, to prevent them from licking or scratching the treated wound. Dogs instinctively lick their wounds. However, licking can worsen the condition, such as causing inflammation of the wound. Also, when the wound heals, the affected area may become itchy. Scratching because it's itchy can cause inflammation or open the wound that has just closed. Therefore, it is necessary to put on an Elizabethan collar to prevent them from scratching the wound. If the condition worsens, treatment at the animal hospital will be required again. In that case, your beloved dog will have to experience a painful experience twice. m22542527503
